    HPI Racing is delighted to announce a development that will see a change of ownership of its global operation. The major shareholders of the Scandinavian based Vestergaard Group have signed a deal that will see them utilise their 50+ years expertise and investment in the hobby industry to revitalise HPI Racing, capitalise on its great heritage and push the brand forward.

     

    Speaking from Vestergaard Group's Danish HQ, the new owners announced a new era for HPI Racing with a stable supply chain and excellent customer service.


    “We are looking very much forward to rebuilding the HPI Racing and Maverick brands together with you. The brands will be putting existing customer's needs first. Every HPI Racing product owner around the world has made an investment in HPI Racing. It's important we remember that and do all we can to ensure they have years of enjoyment from it. We can assure you that there is a bright and sustainable future planned for HPI Racing, with both innovation and parts supply at the core”.

    Although a Kraton is imminent, I'm keen to keep my e-Firestorm running for my boy and wife to use, and simply because it's a fun car that I'd like to keep running, its certainly taken a beating yet keeps going.  It was my first after a break of nearly 20 years, so I'm pleased HPI got a reprieve.

    Me too. Most of mine in the last 6 years have been Hpi and I still have a few, so I'm hoping parts supply will get better.

    Not holding breath. Mayb just restocking the vorza and savage parts will be a top priority over anything revolutionary or shouting hpi is back moment. I'll expect them to try and bring it back to what it was first. Hopefully they will do something awesome soon though.

     

    1/8 on road body range would be cool.

    On-road? Way too dull. For those that like on-road cars, fair play, carry on. 

     

    For a revival, HPI need to release reliable off-road bashers, and do it quickly! Preferably something that can handle the average track would be a bonus.
